Title: Electrostatic spray system
Inventor: SEITZ DAVID M
IPC: B05B5/025
Filed: 2011-02-24
Abstract: A system, in certain embodiments, includes a spray device including a frame having a receptacle configured to receive a self-contained spray can. The spray device further includes a first conductive element configured to contact the selfcontained spray can, and a first electrical conductor extending between the first conductive element and an earth ground such that a first electrical potential of the self-contained spray can is substantially equal to a second electrical potential of the earth ground while the self-contained spray can is in contact with the first conductive element. The spray device also includes a corona-charging electrode positioned adjacent to a spray nozzle of the self-contained spray can. The corona-charging electrode is configured to emit a stream of ions toward the self-contained spray can such that a spray of fluid from the spray nozzle passes through the stream of ions and becomes electrostatically charged.

Title: Resolution adjustment of an image that includes text undergoing an ocr process
Inventor: NIJEMCEVIC DJORDJE
IPC: G06V30/224
Filed: 2011-03-07
Abstract: An optical character recognition process characterizes text lines in a textual image by their base-line, mean-line and x-height. The base-line for at least one text line in the image is determined by finding a parametric curve that maximizes a first fitness function that depends on the values of pixels through which the parametric curve passes and pixels below the parametric curve. The mean-line is determined by incrementally shifting the base-line upward by predetermined amounts (e.g., a single pixel) until a second fitness function for the shifted base-line is maximized. The second fitness function is essentially the inverse of the first fitness function. Specifically, the second fitness function increases with increasing lightless of pixels immediately above the shifted base-line while also increasing with decreasing lightness of pixels through which the shifted base-line passes.

Abstract: Disclosed is a capacitor (100) equipped with a positive electrode (10), a negative electrode (20), and a solid electrolyte layer (30) disposed between these electrode layers (10) and (20). At least one of the electrode layers (10) and (20) comprises porous Al (11) and an electrode material (12 or 13) which is held by the porous Al (11) and which polarizes the electrolyte. The porous Al (11) has a surface oxygen amount of 3.1 mass% or less. That the porous Al (11) has a surface oxygen amount of 3.1 mass% or less is equal to that substantially no oxide film having high resistance has been formed on the surface of the porous Al (11). Due to this porous Al (11), the electrode layer (10 or 20) can have an increased current collection area and, hence, the capacitor (100) can have an improved capacity.

Abstract: [Problem] To enable signal transmission at a high data rate while maintaining backward compatibility. [Solution] A source device (110) and a sink device (120) are connected by a HDMI cable (200). The source device (110) is compatible with both current HDMI and new HDMI. There are three differential signal channels for transmitting digital signals such as video data in the current HDMI, but, for example, there are six channels in the new HDMI.
